About 627 Walnut St
Own a piece of history with this remarkable property, the Archibald Taylor residence in Historic Madison. Built in 1844 to1845 this residence stands as a testament to the area's rich heritage. Located in the historic Georgetown district, it was a significant part of Madison's Underground Railroad as Archibald Taylor was a conductor, offering refuge to those seeking freedom. The neighborhood, centered on Walnut Street north of Main Street, was also home to many German immigrants and free African Americans who built their own churches and schools. While little of the original home remained, meticulous efforts were made to recreate the frame and exterior true to its 1845 origins. Authentic wood siding, a slate roof, classic sleeping porches, and historically accurate paint colors pay tribute to its heritage. The interior of the house is set up for modern living. Layout follows the general logic of the original house but includes kitchens, bathrooms bedrooms closets and modern utilities. This property's storied past and architectural charm make it a unique opportunity to own a piece of Madison's diverse and historic community, awaiting the purchase to finish the interior to their specifications.
